I step backwards
I know it has been awhile but I have been busy, busy at work lately, which I don’t mind.
Yesterday I found out working for the City isn’t always fun. I designed this super doper Manhole cover for the “Stromwater Manhole Contest” where everyone liked it. I submitted skimming over the form to sign. Well skimming over the form I must of missed it because in the form it said that City employees couldn’t be in the contest. So the person in charge e-mailed me saying my drawing was no longer in the running. Well I come to find out many people liked it even the head boss of my division like it. I could have won the contest but things happen for a reason and I must not let it get me down. I will know what I did and one of these days maybe others will know my work but right now it is a step back.
Sometimes I think graphic design is the way to go but I’m not really to go back to school and all the art classes. I like to do it on the side and things I do people love but when I see what others can do it blows me away. I would like to consider myself a “Jack of all Trades.” I know enough to hold my own and to get myself into trouble. Maybe one of these days I will know the potential of my talents but right now I see it as learning.
I’m starting to get stronger at running. Back of my hip is still hurting and I come to find out some of my friends that also ran in the marathon are still having trouble running. They are older and I’m younger saying I can heal better but I have always been like that. I have been blessed with a body that can heal faster and I hope it keeps up with all the stupid things I do pushing myself to the limits. I ordered three pictures from the marathon. If anyone wants to see a man pushed to his limits.
Work is going well. I have been in meetings where I’m not in charge but I have there to answer questions and put my two cent in and I feel comfortable with that and I think is something that can lead to holding my own meetings and projects. I know the project for the meeting because I drew up the plans and been on them for like the last half year. It was a great feeling.
Jen and I are still doing well. That is all I have to say about that. HA
